Selling Products During Checkout (Genbook Manager)

A guide to creating products and adding them to a client's bill during checkout.

Written by Cornelia Updated over a week ago

Genbook lets small businesses sell products right from within their Genbook accounts, during the same checkout process used to charge clients for their appointments. Below, we'll look at how to create a product in Genbook, and how to add it to a customer's checkout process.

Creating a Product in Genbook Manager

1. Tap the gear icon at the top left to access your Settings.

2. Select "Point of Sale"

3. Tap "Products"

4. Tap the "+" sign at the top right of the Products screen.

5. Enter a product name, sale price, and scan its barcode using your phone (if applicable). The barcode will allow you to easily add the product to a transaction by scanning it, but you can also add it by searching and selecting the product. Tap "Done" at the top right when you're satisfied with your new product's name and info.

You should now see the product you just added listed on that Products page. If you need to edit or delete any product, just tap on it and then either change its details and save your changes, or tap the "delete" button at the bottom of the screen.

Adding a Product to a Client's Order Checkout

You can add any product to a client's checkout process, using the steps below:

1. Tap Checkout on the appointment as you would normally do to process payment.

2. On the next screen, tap the shopping cart icon to access your products.

3. Scan or manually select the product(s) you want to add to the transaction, then choose the quantity being purchased. Tap the blue "Done" button at the bottom to add the products to the checkout process.
